How the payment is calculated
Total RVU is work plus practice expense plus malpractice, each adjusted by its GPCI factor, then multiplied by the conversion factor. For 96369 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (0.21 + 4.1 + 0.03) × $33.4009 ≈ $144.96. The same code in a facility setting pays about $144.96 because facility PE RVU (4.1) replaces office PE RVU.
